Designed as a factory\/RIF accessory, it raises the engine’s air intake to roof level along the A-pillar. By doing so, it protects your engine during water crossings and minimizes dust intake in dry, off-road environments. The result is cleaner airflow, reduced risk of hydrolock, and improved long-term reliability for your UAZ van in extreme conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"611\" data-end=\"1123\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"611\" data-end=\"639\"\u003eWhy choose this snorkel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"639\" data-end=\"642\"\u003eUnlike universal snorkels, this model is engineered to original UAZ\/RIF specifications for the Bukhanka platform.
